Compton Uses the Lucky Day 1G Hand to Double

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

John Compton opened, Ricardo Eyzaguirre defended and the dealer spread {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} on the flop. Eyzaguirre was first to act and shoved. Compton called for less, having around 58,000 and they tabled their cards.

John Compton: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Ricardo Eyzaguirre: {8-Spades}{6-Hearts}

The {3-Hearts} turn brought little excitement for Eyzaguirre who needed some love. A {j-Spades} river was not what he was looking for and he sent a double over to Compton.

Hernandez Jams on Bray

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

The pot had 99,000 in the middle and {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs} was face-up. Matthew Bray was first to act, he bet 40,000 and Matthew Hernandez called.

A {3-Diamonds} river completed the board, and Bray tapped the table. Hernandez moved all in for more than enough to cover Bray who went into the tank.

After roughly five minutes, Bray threw his hand into the muck and Hernandez secured the pot.

Jackson Surging Through Day 1G

Level 11 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Gloria Jackson
Gloria Jackson

Gloria Jackson was on a steady grind in the upward direction throughout the flight but has caught some major wind under her sails as of late.

On the latest hand, she raised and Jeremy Whalen shoved around 80,000 into the middle. She snapped it off and was in a commanding lead when the cards turned over.

Jeremy Whalen: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Gloria Jackson: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

The community was filled with {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{5-Clubs}, and Whalen became another victim of Jackson's heater. She now sits on top of the field and is showing no signs of slowing down.

Whittington Takes an Exit

Level 11 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Blake Whittington moved in his last 22,000 and Matthew Bray was the only caller.

Blake Whittington: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Matthew Bray: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

The {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{10-Hearts} flop smacked Bary with the deck, hitting broadway to jump into a cozy lead. A {7-Diamonds} turn and {6-Clubs} river were of no help to Whittington who was eliminated by Bray.
